that sounds alot like me........... very insecure at times.

my ex was a bit like a character in one of those old bette davis movies where hes trying to drive the wife mad to get at her fortune, except i didnt have one, constantly telling me i was useless, asking me where something was then hiding it and telling me i was going off my head.............


Most abusers I think are really just after control, I think thats what drives them...So sad......Im glad you saw sense and got out when you did Helen x

I work in shearing sheds and drive a tractor around and harrow and the like and such basically all my work is varied

I'm starting milking soon which is probably going to throw my hours out a bit.

4:00am starts.:-2


yeah i amaze a lot of people around here by being a girl who can drive a tractor:wah::wah: but i was an only child on a working farm and had to do a lot of the jobs that my brothers would have done if i had brothers,:wah::wah:

so basically i'm a little bit of a tomboy:wah:

Wales is nice Fuzzy, very green, lots of castles and hills lol...Most welsh folk are ok, some beaches are breathtaking, we saw dolphins in Pembrokshire the year before last. Depends where you go, like all places I suppose. Im right on the border and only 8 miles from the Cheshire border.

i had an old coat in the wardrobe i didnt wear, i picked a hole in the lining and put a few quid away in there when ever i could and for three months i slept on floors, sofas and chairs where ever anyone could put me up, along with my youngest daughter while the other two stayed with friends.

eventually he went back to essex, i got an injunction out on him and the council re housed me.

you are right Chezzie this is amazing!

but i was wondering are we long lost twins or something, what you were saying earlier you could have been describing me!

i am way to soft-hearted, i cry very easily, i don't believe in standing and arguing with someone and will walk away rather that do it.

i don't know if thats a good thing or not

my cousin and i were trying to learn to drive a truck with a stick shift when we were kids and my daddy put us out in the pasture, we're lucky we didn't take out a fence:wah::wah: but i bet we were a funny sight driving around in circles, the truck jumping around and cutting off every few seconds it was really fun though!

Ahhhh :wah:fing is I have real ones and geese here and everytime I look at em I fink about ye:wah:do you waddle like they do:wah:;)

I did when I was pregnant:wah:and occasionally when we've been to a party.

When I have no one to turn to

And I am feeling kind of low,

When there is no one to talk to

And nowhere I want to go,

I search deep within myself

It is the love inside my heart

That lets me know my Angels are there

Even though we are miles apart.

A smile then appears upon my face

And the sun begins to shine.

I hear a voice, so soft and sweet

Saying, 'Everything will be just fine'

It may seem that I am alone

But I am never by myself at all.

Whenever I need my Angels near

All I have to do is call.

An Angel's love is always true

On that you can depend.

They will always stand behind you

And will always be your friend.

Through darkest hours and brightest days

Our Angels see us through.

YOU are one of my Angels.

Perhaps I am one for you.

i waddled when i was pregnant too big time!

well i gained almost 40 pounds!:wah::wah:

Gained weight with my two girls but not with my boys and hahaha, was able to walk out of the hospital with both boys wearing regular clothes.

Well hiya, I'm just poppin in to see how you all are. I've been all over the place today, and doing washing and cooking etc. Not had any time to come on here I'm afraid. I will try to get on later, but I still have some washing to deal with and cooking supper.:-5 :rolleyes:

Knackered !

Gill, I see you are on a laundry marathon. At least this week some of my laundry has calmed down a bit, doing the old spring cleaning and getting rid of things that don't fit anymore. BTW: What are you cooking?:D

I've seen this one before, Carol, but it is so nice it's worth another airing ;)

i had unbelievable morning sickness, it was so bad that some days i couldn't get out of the bed. the only way i could prevent it a lot of the time was to eat something, so i ate quite a bit!:wah::wah:

I was only sick with the girls but just in the first trimester.

Hi Ducky ! I am not doing anything too fussy. Chris has retreated to light meals again, so that is what I am doing, very mundane and unexciting I'm afraid, and Andy and I will join him - be an excuse for me to not eat a big meal, and I might even loose a bit of weight ! :wah: :rolleyes:

Hi Gill!

How are you today?:)

Off again ! I'll try to get back later :-3

See ya Gill. And yeah, summer is coming up fast, need to shed a few pounds myself.

Hope, if it's going up to 75 this week, what is it going to be like down in your neck of the woods?

well if y'all are gonna be 75, we'll probably be in the 80's:-6

And guess what I'm not complaining:wah:. Tired of the cold, yucky weather. Just cleaned off my deck yesterday and filled up the propane tank, oooohhhh, yeah! Grilling time.
